Macintosh SE/30
Compacts1989Uncommon
Widely considered the greatest compact Mac ever made. The SE/30 packed a 16 MHz 68030 and 68882 FPU into the same case that started with the 128K in 1984 — and ran circles around most of the Mac II line despite fitting in a smaller box. With MODE32 it could address up to 128MB of RAM. The performance pinnacle of the compact Mac lineage, and definitively the best.
